Abstract
In the pre-trial proceedings in the Czech Republic, it is the public prosecutor, called 'the master of the pre-trial proceedings', who is supposed to have a dominant role in the pre-trial proceedings. The author states that in reality, the public prosecutor unfortunately does not have such strong position.
To achieve this goal, it is necessary to take many further steps, both organisational and legislative. The author advocates strengthening the constitutional position of the public prosecution.
In his de constitutione ferenda reflections, he recommends subsuming the public prosecution under the judicial power (the judiciary).
